There are a number of address accuracy products on the market.  However, not all of these products are equally capable of meeting your address quality needs.  Some products are not even recognized under Canada Post’s SERP testing program.  SERP recognition is an important indication that official, timely reference data is used to validate and correct your addresses.  It’s important to keep in mind that while SERP recognition should be one of your minimum selection requirements, SERP recognition is not sufficient to guarantee that you’re getting everything you need from your address quality tool.

There are a number of areas in which nCode beats the competition:

• Accuracy – nCode has an extremely aggressive correction algorithm that properly identifies and corrects almost one third more addresses than are required to pass the SERP test.  This means that more of your addresses are going to be corrected and standardized when you use nCode – and isn’t that the point of using an address quality tool?
• Flexibility – nCode is designed to work with your addresses your way.  It’s very highly configurable and designed from the ground, up to integrate seamlessly into your applications.
• Platform independence – nCode works on every major platform and can be accessed using virtually any programming language.  Unlike tools from some vendors, nCode is identical on every platform so you know that regardless of any different or additional platforms you may need to support in the future, your investment in nCode is safe.
• Footprint – nCode uses advanced techniques to ensure that minimal system resources are required.  This means that you won’t need to acquire and manage additional hardware in order to use nCode.  Furthermore, nCode has no third-party software dependencies so there is nothing else for you to buy, install or operate.
• Performance – nCode’s tiny footprint and advance compression techniques allow it to outperform the competition.
• Powerful Features – nCode not only validates and corrects your Canadian mailing addresses, it also standardizes and transforms addresses into any address format you require.  nCode also has powerful address searching capabilities that you just won’t find anywhere else.
